Why didn't you move your domains with everyone else during the SOPA uprising? JotForm sat on their asses and stayed with GoDaddy, now look at them.

Stop the song and dance. If you haven't moved your domains already, you probably never will.

I moved to Namecheap three GoDaddy scandals ago (the elephant one, before Jotform and SOPA). You've got to wonder how they've got any customers left.

Maybe this is a good way to measure internet time - "We launched our first service four GoDaddy scandals ago, and pivoted two scandals later."

Nicely said. I'm did the same. The elephant incedent was more than enough incentive for me never to do business with them again.

EDIT: Foxylad, you're the kind of ethical person I would like to work with in the future. Please leave some contact info in your profile so I can reach you. Thank you.

Frankly, cost and a call from a GoDaddy rep. I decided to hang tight and see how it played out. Mission accomplished. Now it's just a matter of deciding where to go. I have zero interest in playing musical registrars.
